Intro:
F--Em--Dm--C x3
F
Roses for columbus
Em
He's found another land
Dm
Oysters from the children
C
fall between their hands
F
Roses for columbus
Em
who sleeps on virgin sands
Dm
flowers from the children
C
fall between their hands
Repeat intro progression with lead fill
Em
He lies upon the ocher sands
G G
and tells them what he saw
Em
to his health they drink his eastern rum
G G
and dance upon the shore
Em
and when there's silence
D
and only the ocean's sound
A
he gently turns his bearded head
B
You know the world is round
G, F#, F, E run into Em
Em--G--C
Single strum C, hold for 2 measures
C7
F
Fingers full of eastern rings
Em
pockets full of gold
Dm
open up his yellow map
C
You'll find another fold
F
roses for columbus
Em
who sails with silk and lace
Dm
behind unnknown horizons
C
he'll find another fate
